Description |
This book is the definitive volume on the history of chess in Singapore. Covering 1945–1990, it covers the post-war emergence of a truly "local" chess scene out of the colonial period, then taking the story up to the modern era. Contained within these pages are tributes to the modern founding fathers of Singapore chess. Also chronicled within are the careers of Singapore's top players and their achievements. This includes fine team performances (belying Singapore's seeming status in the chess world as a tiny red dot) and spectacular individual successes on the international stage. In documenting chess development in Singapore for the period in question, this book also provides glimpses of a wider social history. Personal stories (based on fresh interviews) are provided that give a sense of the chessplaying milieu of the time. Stalwarts in the chess scene, featured in this book, went on to be notable figures in the wider social and political landscape. A selection of 139 annotated games played by top Singapore-based players and Singapore masters between 1949 and 1990 is matched by a rich collection of more than 200 rare illustrations. This volume is a wonderful resource for chess aficionados, interested amateurs, collectors and historian. |

Abstract |
The Rani of Jhansi Regiment (RJR) is scarcely visible in the social memory of the Japanese occupation in Southeast Asia and the activities of Subhash Chandra Bose on behalf of the Indian nationalist movement. The few memoirs that do exist were written by elite and well-educated RJR veterans, and they celebrate a sense of unity among Indians from various background who supported Bose’s efforts, including soldiers who came to the RJR from working class backgrounds in Malaya and Singapore. Using recollections from witnesses to and participants in the Indian nationalist movement in Japanese-occupied Malaya and Singapore, this article challenges the elite view by exploring alternative perceptions of Bose’s activities. Illustrating the importance of gender and socio-economic boundaries in Bose’s nationalist movement, this article argues that differences in class and caste estranged subaltern Indian women during the Occupation. |
